Description
Installation and assembly depicted in the above video.
Thermaltake Core P3 TG Pro only comes with a single fan mounting bracket. I used mine on the side of the case and wanted to limit the amount of dust coming into the case from the top. I designed these fan mounting brackets that will fit the top of the case (and probably also the side since they seem cross compatible) that will mount 120mm and 140mm fans.
In my case I did not use the fans since I just needed covers for dust so I installed dust filter covers (see link below) and did not install fans. I used the spare fan screws from the Thermaltake case and threaded them into the 3D printed nuts to retain the dust covers and hex grills.
Additionally, I do not have a water cooled heat exchanger / radiator yet. To make the dead space look more interesting, I designed and printed three of these “Slot Covers” to match the white case and add more hexagons :)

You can likely print the parts in PLA… with fans running there doesn't seem to be enough heat to compromise the parts. This is an open frame case and I haven't noticed elevated temperatures. However PETG would probably be better.
You can use #4 x ¼" or M3 x 3mm pan head thread forming screws to assemble all of the parts of the fan mounts and the same hardware can be used to mount the slot covers from the back side of the case. The assembly is depicted in the video above and is very straightforward.
